ALPINE ALL THE WAY...

although alpine don't have all the funky screens you get with kenwoods and alike, they have a much high signal to noise ratio, which mean far better quality of sound...

I'd rather have better quality sound than a funky screen which gives you 10 mins of pleasure...

You want your midbass drivers upfront if you can deal with the headache of fitting them. Also you dont need 6 x 9's in the rear, a simple 5.25" coaxel speaker should more than suffice and keep them turned down low to get a good 'stage'.

Kicker ones are good, loads of people on here like Infinity ones. BUT me i prefer JL Audio;)

Get a good MP3 H/U but try and make sure it has 3 .45 - 6v Pre-outs.

That way the signal from the H/U will be stronger. Get a slightly better sound.

What model number Kickers are you going for???

Your nearly there mate, but that wouldn't sound all that.

Go for something like this......

Good Headunit

5.25 or 6" components (you need a ring for 6")
two 12" subs in back.

Amp them both up (over power them a bit)

Loads of Dynamat Xtreme
CAP
Bigger battery

Your done;)

Steve.

right this is what i was thinking.#


FRONT

16 1/cm speakers
crossovers
tweeters

REAR
6x9's
8" mids
15"sub

POWER

amp for front speakers
amp formids
amp for subs
6x9's running off headunit.


does this sound OK
:boggle:
